The Everly Brothers
John Tobler, ZigZag, May 1970
THE EVERLY BROTHERS first single 'Bye Bye Love' was released in 1957 and their records have been consistently good since then. Don Everly, now 33, was in London for a few days, on his way home from a South African tour, and John (our rock'n'roll maniac) managed to interview him.
